If exclusion doesn't have to be maintained in your application (see the

discussion in Section 3.5), the ASD-4 can be just another extension on the

line. You can install it with a single-line phone attached to its PHONE port by

following the single-line installation procedure described in Section 3.3. You

can install it with a two-line phone attached to its PHONE port by following the

installation procedure described in Section 3.6.2.

If your application requires that exclusion be maintained, the whole line

must be attached to its PHONE port. Use the installation procedure

described in Section 3.5.2, but be careful: Depending on which line you're

attaching the ASD-4 to, you might need to cut and divert the yellow and black

wires (L2—line 2) to the yellow and black posts, rather than the red and

green wires (L1—line 1) to the red and green posts. Normally the line that

was installed first for any given site will be on the red and green wires, and the

line installed later will be on the yellow and black wires. If you can't

determine which line is on which pair, call for technical support.

When exclusion is maintained this way, putting a two-line phone on the

ASD-4's line is very simple, as opposed to the procedure detailed in the

previous section. No three-way adapters are required. Look at Figure 3-5 on

page 14: Since both lines go to each wall jack beyond jack "Number 2," plug it

in just like any other extension—run a single phone cable from the two-line

phone's "L1 + L2" jack to one of these jacks. If you want to use a two-line

TAD, you can plug it into another of these jacks; or, if you want it to be at the

same location as the two-line phone, plug a two-to-one adapter (an adapter

that turns one jack into two, but sends both lines to both jacks) into the wall

jack the two-line phone is on.
